Fête du Citron: Cinema - Ben Hur


Yet another type of cinema - this time, ancient Rome.

There's a Caption Competition on Monte Carlo Daily Photo today...

  2. Ben Hur, what an idea for a float!
    The only thing better would have been real horses and chariot. :)

  4. Oh wow, the size of this installation alone is very impressive. The view from the arch in your second photo is wonderful — it looks like a real Roman street scene.

  6. Is it that time of year again? I remember looking in awe at your La Fête du Citron photos last year. This year's is equally as impressive; as are your photos.

  11. Now that would be really cool. I'd love to roar through Menton, St. Louis or anywhere firing a lemon cannon. I can think of several people, places and things around here that could use a blast of citric acid.
